Trap-Towers is a game for 2 players, each trying to destroy the opposing pyramids by surrounding it. Gameplay is very similar to the vintage game "Man-In-The-Moon".
What you need[edit | edit source]
- Three pyramids per player. Since size is irrelevant, each player can use one nest as long as colors are distinct.
- 3x3 square grid board (like a single Martian Coaster)
Objective[edit | edit source]
To kill off all of the opponent's towers except one.
How to kill towers[edit | edit source]
Have one of your towers on either side of the tower you wish to kill, but only in a straight line (no diagonals).
Turn[edit | edit source]
The shortest player goes first.
You MUST move a tower each turn.
- Pieces may move 1 space in any direction (orthogonal or diagonal).
- You can only move one piece per turn.
- It is legal to intentionally sacrifice a piece.
- If you have no valid moves, pass.
